Debout sur le Zinc

In the "neo-realist French chanson" family, claiming to be as much Georges Brassens as Jacques Brel or Barbara, while evoking the idealized image of 1930s France, Debout Sur Le Zinc is one of the groups that are as representative as they are essential. Little brothers of the Têtes Raides and the Ogres de Barback, spiritual sons of the Ceux Qui Marchent Debout brass band and cousins by marriage of La Rue Kétanou, this band from the Paris region has been evolving since 1995 in a style that blends gypsy jazz, gypsy music and folklore from the Paris region. Always upright, always a little retro, the "zingueurs" continue to bring their particular universe to life from album to album, such as Les Promesses (2006) and De Charybde en Scylla (2008), and from concert to festival, as demonstrated by De Scy, De Lla in 2010. The following year, the DSLZ activists released their sixth opus, La Fuite en Avant. Three years later, the band parted ways with two members, bassist and double bassist William Lovti and guitarist Christophe Bastien, who ceded their places, post for post, to Thomas Benoît and Marie Lalonde. Strengthened by this renewed team, the band conceived the album Eldorado(s), released on September 28, 2015.
